Hello and welcome to HCM,
A history of fever along with high segmented white blood cells and low lymphocytes suggests bacterial infection.
However, infection with streptococcus is ruled out and thus there is some other cause for the infection.
Consult your treating doctor to look for focus of infection in the body.
Thanks and take care
